The PSP release date is constantly changing! My mate wants to get one but he is confused over the release. Apparantly it was supposed to come out on the 18th March, then the 29th april and now Amazon.co.uk says the 24th June! What's going on?!

Lucky that you know someone in the US. Just make sure they mark the package down to $20 or less as you will get stung by customs.

The PSP uses an external AC Adaptor that is 110-240v so will work with any power supply in the world, all you need is the correct cable or get an adaptor. I have a Sony Digital Camera and Camcorder and they both use this way and have the correct cable so I didnt need to bother with another cable. Handy if your travelling to the US as you dont need to bother with getting a converter or anything. Also now I have a US cable so I dont need to bother with plug adaptors when I go to the US now.

Christ - if only I could use them...

I'm assuming you know someone in the States who can forward the goods on?

Good stuff. Amazon.com have already shipped most of my order already - was only placed under an hour ago :)

Dunno about the amp rating, but it's an AC pack, so poses no threat to the PSP.

It works, that's all I know :D

amazon.com, they're by far the cheapest.

Have a US address there so I'll be getting it indirectly. Even after the two deliveries it still works out cheaper.

Good to know I don't need one, I'll have to share it with my laptop though.

EDIT: Won't the amp rating be all wrong? Does the PSP need a bigger fuse?

You don't need one really.

Just use a Figure8 plug from things like an Xbox etc. Slot it into the PSP charger unit and you're off.

Where did you buy it from? Import Madness chuck in a US-UK adapter anyway.

Gretsky, Mercury, MGA and Pure.

Do you know where I can get one of those US-UK plug thingys cheaply? I'm sure they're worth less than the £7 on ebay.
